G. MATHE and R. K. OLDHAM'~ Institut de Cancerologie et d'Immunogem!tique, Hopital Paul Brousse, Villejuif Since the last war, cancer chemotherapy has been the object of very intensive and expensive research. Nevertheless, its development has been very slow, and its ultimate potential is today somewhat in doubt. In doubt because it does not cure any cancer patients except a) females carrying placental choriocarcinoma, a semi-allogenic tumor, i...

This book is mainly focused on the development of tools for decision-makers in finance, ranging from treasurers of firms to professional investors and bank managers. It presents a broad variety of applications using techniques and methodologies from various fields such as econometrics, operations research and financial mathematics. The tools for decision-making have been modified towards financial decision support systems. The role of the deci...

In a very real sense, much of North American physiological plant ecol­ ogy began in the Basin and Range and has been researched there over the last four decades. However, we believe that this book may be the first attempt to bring together the full range of contemporary research into the fascinating plant biology of the Basin and Range Province. We have invited contributions from researchers presently working in and around the Province and ask...

Because of the great variety of problems which this genus presents to biologists, Oenothera belongs to the best-known genera of plants not used economically. This book summarizes today's knowledge of Oenothera's genetics and related fields like caryology and cytogenetics. It is further of great value for all those whose research topics are based on genetics, such as developmental and evolutionary biology.

Natural resistance is now coming to be recognized as a potentially important phenomenon in host defense against infection and ma­ lignancy. Genetically controlled resistance mechanisms are usUally effective early in infection and before conventional immune responses are generated. Comparisons of experimental systems where natural resistance plays a prominent role demon­ strate the complexities of the host defense mechanisms involved, as eviden...

Neurological, neurovegetative, and psychic changes following surgery or in­ tensive care indicate alterations in cerebral function. When these changes are analyzed exactly, they are found to be by no means rare, at the same time, they present a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations. While optimal circulatory monitoring - including continuous EEG recording during anes­ thesia or intensive care - is today regarded as routine, the problem of o...

As indicated in Vol. 1, the purpose of this two-volume textbook is to pro­ vide students of engineering, science and applied mathematics with the spe­ cific techniques, and the framework to develop skill in using them, that have proven effective in the various branches of computational fluid dy­ namics Volume 1 describes both fundamental and general techniques that are relevant to all branches of fluid flow. This volume contains specific tech­...

The first book of the new, textbook series, entitled Applied Dynamics of Manipulation Robots: Modelling, Analysis and Examples, by M. Vukobratovic, published by Springer-Verlag (1989) was devoted to the problems of dynamic models and dynamic analysis of robots. The present book, the second in the series, is concerned with the problems of the robot control. In conceiving this textbook, several dillemas arouse. The main issue was the question on...

Der vorliegende 6. Band konnte die Oberschrift "Pflanzenschutzforschung auf neuen Wegen" tragen. Trotz der verbreiteten, meist aufmangelndem Informations­ stand beruhenden Voreingenommenheit gegen den chemischen Pflanzenschutz, nimmt dessen Bedeutung sHindig zu. Das beruht auf der Notwendigkeit einer sicheren und rationellen landwirtschaftlichen Produktionssteigerung, die durch das rapide Wachstum der WeItbevolkerung erzwungen wird. Zwar ist d...

Most drugs, toxins, hormones, and the like bring about their biologic actions by reacting with specific receptors somewhere in the body. Scientists working in all areas of biologic science have shown increasing interest in the analysis of drug-receptor interactions in the broadest sense. Studies of drugs (binding) to receptors in situ and to isolated and partly purified receptors are becoming common practice. The action of a drug in the body i...

Indem er die von der Europäischen Union beschlossene "Lissabon-Strategie" der "Modernisierung und Verbesserung des europäischen Sozialmodells" beim Wort nimmt, beobachtet dieser neue Beitrag zur sozialwissenschaftlichen Berichterstattung die Wechselwirkungen zwischen Ökonomie, Lebensweisen und Institutionensystem im Umbruch der deutschen Gesellschaft.

Was ist Unternehmenswert, und welche Faktoren bestimmen ihn? Future Value ist ein neu entwickeltes Konzept, das auf einer wertorientierten Unternehmenssteuerung basiert. Es zeigt, wie Unternehmer nötige Informationen erheben und wie sie - auch unter Berücksichtigung der Balanced Scorecard - daraus erfolgreiche Strategien ableiten können.

There are a great deal of books on introductory analysis in print today, many written by mathematicians of the first rank. The publication of another such book therefore warrants a defense. I have taught analysis for many years and have used a variety of texts during this time. These books were of excellent quality mathematically but did not satisfy the needs of the students I was teaching. They were written for mathematicians but not for thos...

Auf der einen Seite immer neue Managementmoden und Machbarkeitswahn, auf der anderen die postmoderne Beliebigkeit konzeptloser Ich-AGs. Holger Rust zeigt pointiert, wie beide Positionen in Sackgassen geraten. Wem aber gehört die Zukunft? Den sanften Managementrebellen, die dabei sind, die Chefetagen aufzumischen. Eine originelle, provozierende, vor allem hoffnungsfrohe Lektüre.

Bei der Herstellung und Verarbeitung von Baustoffen laufen chemische Prozesse ab. Bauingenieure und Architekten müssen diese Vorgänge zumindest ansatzweise kennen. "Baustoffchemie" vermittelt grundlegende Kenntnisse zur Beurteilung der Einsatzmöglichkeiten von Baustoffen, ihres Verhaltens gegenüber Umwelteinflüssen, der Verträglichkeit verschiedener Baustoffe untereinander und zur Diagnose und Behandlung von Bauschäden.

Die vorliegende Schrift war seit Jahren vergriffen. Mit der zweiten Auflage wird die bisher größte vergleichende Gegenüberstellung von Ehen depressiver Menschen und von Ehen schizophrener Menschen wieder zugänglich.

Located northwest of downtown San Diego, the Marine Corps Recruit Depot (MCRD) is rich in the history and traditions of the US Marine Corps. The base was born in part of the perseverance of Col. Joseph H. Pendleton and the efforts of Congressman William Kettner. MCRD San Diego was commissioned in 1921 and officially designated as the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in 1948. It is the oldest operational Marine Corps base on the West Coast and gradua...

Tuscaloosa (Choctaw for "black warrior") is one of the oldest cities in West Alabama. It shares its name with a chief who fought Spanish conquistador Hernando de Soto in 1540 and a river that stretches from the Appalachian foothills in the north-central region to the floodplain and lowlands of the south. Called "The Druid City" since the 1800s, when large water oaks lined its main streets, Tuscaloosa remains a center of industry, commerce, hea...
